  • The purpose of this study is to examine the heath status and health behavior of middle-aged Korean men and women. Even though there has been increased concern about extremely high mortality rate of Korean middle-aged men and mental health problems of middle aged women, there is a dearth of empirical studies which examine the health status and health behavior of middle-aged men and women in Korea. This study attempts to fill these gaps. Data gathered from 1,667 men and women aged between 30-59 are analyzed to examine the level of physical health, mental health, perceived health and health behavior and to explore the gender and age group differences in these aspects. The results show that there exist gender difference and age group difference in health status: Women are less healthy than men and as age increased health status declined. Women at their 50s are least healthy and most unhappy suggesting age and gender interaction in health status. There exist a gender difference in health behavior: Men have regular check-ups more frequently than women and exercise more. These results are discussed in terms of the gender differences in the experiences, social roles and life styles over the life course.

Method: Participants for this study were 16 middle aged women from farming communities, who lived in C county and were independent and without chronic ailments. In collection and analysis of data Strauss & Cortin's (1997) research processes and methods were used. The period of data collection was between April 2001 and February 2002. Result: The results of the study showed that the core category was the family-oriented process of $yangsaeng^{1)}$, and four types of health behaviors were observed; $momboyang^{2)}$ maintenance of health through daily life, managing mental health, and managing illness. Each type was perceived to differ from the other in the terms of health behavior priority which was largely affected by the cultural surrounding, for example, degree of attention to children's education and tendency to a traditional role for women.

  • 본 연구는 노인의 건강행위와 관련이 있는 지각된 건강상태, 자아존중감, 자기효능감, 사회적지지간의 관계를 알아보고, 노인건강행위에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위해서 시행 되었다. 2008년 6월부터 7월까지 대전 충남에 거주하는 65세 이상 남녀 노인을 대상으로 271명을 조사하였다. 연구결과, 종교를 가진 노인이 건강행위가 좋은 것으로 나타났고, 배우자가 있고 학력이 높은 노인이 지각된 건강상태가 좋은 것으로 조사되었다. 또한, 여자 노인이 남자 노인보다, 학력이 높은 노인이 학력이 낮은 노인보다 자기효능감이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 노인건강행위와 지각된 건강상태, 자아존중감, 자기효능감간에 유의한 상관관계가 있었고, 지각된 건강상태와 자아존중감, 자기효능감간에 유의한 상관관계가 있었으며, 자아존중감과 자기효능감간에도 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 노인건강행위에 영향을 미치는 중요한 변수는 자아존중감으로 확인되었다. 본 연구의 제한점과 시사점, 추후 과제가 논의되었다.
